  • I heard this was pretty good, I have actually been getting into some Rockabilly lately. I will definetly check this out. BTW since when did Cut Chemist become a Rockabilly dude.

    I copped it the other day and it's dope. I know nothing about this type of music/any of the included artists (except Link Wray) but it's solid as hell.

    i heard some soundclips, but i wasn't really feeling it too much. i only listened to like 2 clips though. maybe i'll give this chance in the beatmobile. what type of clothings do you guys recommend i wear while listening to rockabilly musics while driving? anything to enhance the experience? do they make rockabilly driving shoes? i need to know.

    Not so much the jacket, but the sideburns gotta be in the mix.

    I can imagine this being good for what it is, but i can't imagine being into it.

  • During my job last year I had a 50 minute commute both ways. On the way back to Madison I'd catch a show on the college station that played this kind of stuff. I've always liked old rockabilly and rock n roll.

    Most of the stuff the DJ played was on a label called Buffalo Bop. There are, from what I remember, over 20 CDs devoted just to old rock instrumentals from the 50s. There are CDs with rockabilly, as well, but I'm not sure about jump blues.

    I've listened to the clips from Darge's CD and the Buffalo Bop volumes are better unless you want jump blues tracks.

  • It's cool on the level that these dudes keep trying different things. I guess if you listen to music long enough, you eventually try most genres. I'm still waiting on the post-music compilations -- nothing but AM radio clips.


  • I'll have to check this out. I know I have come across my share of rockabilly, bluegrass, and country, and I have probably thrown out a lot more. Had I known... eh, I know nothing.

    Everyone knows the famous soul, rock, and country names, and like the RAERS, there were people in local regions doing the same thing, trying to get some of that shine. Some are really bad, but some are quite good.

    What label is this on, BTW?

    A lot of this stuff has been comped on other albums, but if you don't own Ric Cartey's raw "Scratchin' On My Screen," this looks like a good place to pick it up. Lotta jump-blues stuff mixed in with the rockabilly, but then again most folks who like one like the other. (At least one of these tracks that I know - the Planet Rockers' "Bateroo" - is from the nineties, but it fits right in all the same.)

    The R&B on this Keb Darge comp is unmistakably "OLD, old."

    You missed the most obvious "common" record on this CD, Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business."
